BAC TAC Banquet

Four weeks from tonight, on Friday, June 20, we'll be toasting the tenth anniversary of the formation of Beech Aero Club. Attendance is starting to take shape. As a reminder, registration will end on June 10, as we need to provide the Beech Factory with names and addresses of those taking the tour as well as firm up dinner arrangements with the Marriott.

It will be most helpful for everyone to register on the website and get your payment in. We don't want to leave anyone out. As a reminder, if you go ahead and register, then subsequently have to cancel, refunds will be available through June 15th. On June 16th the Marriott will need the final head count guarantee for the banquet.

That's 21 and counting, with several others expressing interest in attending.

We'll continue to remind everyone, Tuesday, June 10 is the deadline to register and pay for the event. As this will be a plated dinner at the Marriott, the exact number of meals will be ordered on Monday morning, June 16. We will not be able to add people after that date. Cancellations received by June 15 will be fully refunded.
